A kind voice on the phone: Na-young's request
Na-young is housebound after chemotherapy and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

After chemotherapy, I have been mostly housebound for 10 weeks. My family live far away, and the days can feel very long. I'm not looking for therapy - I've that covered - but for conversation.
I'm hoping for someone who can call for about 30 minutes once a week whenever suits us both. I like history, chess and quiz shows, and can listen to anything.
This can be from anywhere in the world as long as you speak English. We can arrange the calls through the platform, with email shared only when we're both comfortable.
Thanks for even thinking about it.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Stay strong. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Ciudad de México
Wishing you peace, Na-young. Get well soon.
Sending strength, Na-young. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Love from Las Cruces
rooting for you. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless
Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 6 people at work. Thinking of Suwon.
Wishing you the best, Na-young. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Bogor but we're thinking of you
Hang in there, Na-young. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Thinking of you, Na-young. Hope this works out for you. I hope October is when things finally get easier
So sorry you're going through this. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
hope it all works out, Na-young. Get well soon. After 20 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
Take care, Na-young. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day!
stay strong, Na-young. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
sending strength, Na-young. Shared this with my family. God bless!
Sending good thoughts, Na-young. I hope things turn around soon.
